Sampdoria, Di Francesco set to become next manager

Sampdoria, after terminating Giampaolo's contract by mutual consent yesterday, is ready to hire the next manager: the Blucerchiati are now inches away to have Eusebio Di Francesco on their bench.

The former Roma coach will define the last details of the termination of his Roma contract (an agreement is getting really close) so that he'd be free to sign the three-year contract Sampdoria have ready for him.
